The example above shows a linear progression for a beat and a half followed by a hovering effect back and forth for the last 2 and a half beats. Manipulating this time envelope is a very creative way to manipulate the sample. The slope need not be linear and can be curved (right click on a point and a menu of shapes between points is available), which creates a variation in the speed of the soundвЂ™s play back. If the slope is inverted it plays the sample in reverse. If the slope is horizontal it will play a tone. The steeper the slope the faster the sample plays. Take a listen by clicking on a key with your mouse or on you MIDI controller to see if it sounds like you want. Now click on the вЂњTempoвЂќ button and drag the peak point on the envelope to the nearest beat or bar (depending on how long you want your loop). Once you select вЂњPrepare time envelopeвЂќ, the вЂњENVвЂќ screen below automatically appears (Notice the two drop downs above the envelope display вЂњImage time offsetвЂќ and вЂњEnvelopeвЂќ вЂ“ so that you may get back to the display when you want to). Hit the circular drop down again and select вЂњPrepare time envelopeвЂќ. The following screen appears once you make the selection.ДҐ. Hit the button and select вЂњSet viewed zone as loop regionвЂќ: Above the image of the sample information is a circular drop down button that contains several options for manipulating the image information. We are looking for peaks in the intensity of the image horizontally where we can repeat, reverse, or hover around.Д¤. By analyzing the graphic representation we can find areas (points of interest in the image below) in the representation that will be good candidates for manipulating through an envelope. You will notice the sample once dragged into the вЂњimage sectionвЂќ has a graphic representation. Drag the sample file you want to use into the вЂњimage sectionвЂќ

This saves times for creating future presets from samples.ДЈ. Finally, save this preset as вЂњHQ_ResynthesisвЂќ in the Template directory.Fourth, go to the bottom вЂњFreqвЂќ filter knob, choose вЂњClass high passвЂќ from the drop down, then right click and choose вЂњQuick Map ToвЂќ -> вЂњModulation YвЂќ.Third, go to the top вЂњFreqвЂќ filter knob for which should be set at вЂњCrude low passвЂќ, right click and choose вЂњQuick Map ToвЂќ -> вЂњModulation XвЂќ.Second hit the вЂњADVвЂќ tab and go to the вЂњimage/resynthesisвЂќ drop down and select вЂњHigh precisionвЂќ.First hit the вЂњFXвЂќ tab and go to the Compression section and select вЂњBurningвЂќ and raise the вЂњamtвЂќ slightly above halfway or as high as you desire.Before bringing in a sample, lets improve the Resynthesis preset make sure that we can enhance the quality of the sample sound in Harmor and also map the low pass filter to the X Modulation and the high pass filter to the Y Modulation. NOTE: You may want to prepare the sample for вЂњResynthesisвЂќ by using a plug-in like Newtone or Celemony Melodyne to correct the pitch to a C note and normalize the sound for optimum sound quality.Дў. Open up Harmor and select Presets -> Template -> Resynthesis.

Harmor VST is a very distinctive Synth/Sampler that allows you to make some pretty wild sounds, and breath new life into old samples.
